Activision’s Black Ops 6 was released just two days ago (October 25, 2024), yet it has already been plagued with problems. Although initially well-received by the community, players started facing difficulties once they moved into the Multiplayer mode. Similar to the previous titles in the franchise, players started having hit registration issues and inconsistent TTK, making the game almost unplayable at times.

This frustrated the community and forced them to address the issues on Reddit.

User EquivalentSurround87 recently took to the r/blackops6 subreddit to share their poor experiences with the game. Many complained about the overall poor state of the game and that it needed an immediate fix.

A user called ghostuser6501 said that the hit registration was bad even without the additional server issues:

"Yeah I came to this sub to talk about this. I swear it got worse with the hotfix today, constant packet loss/etc but even without the hit registration is pretty bad."

Another user by the name of ItsmejimmyC commented how enemies were not causing any damage despite throwing a barrage of bullets, while they were dying in two shots:

"Was just going to post this. The game feels rigged. I'm filling enemies with bullets and they are just walking through them, meanwhile I die in what feels like two bullets."

User Read1390 explained that at times they would get perfect kills with just a few bullets and sometimes even entire magazines were not enough. They added that it was probably a net code issue, something the developer is notorious for.

In a similar post by SozinMadeit, user MadeThisToFlagSpam reacted to the video as they were surprised how SozinMadeit did not get the kill even after hitting the enemy 13 times. They commented:

"You hit him like 13 times and 2-3 of them were headshots, christ!"

Finally, user PresidentJ1 said that this was the game's biggest flaw. They said that it sometimes took them nine shots to kill an enemy while they were dying in three to five shots. They went on to add that inconsistent TTK might be the reason they consider not playing the game at all.

What are the issues causing inconsistent TTK in Black Ops 6?

The primary reason for inconsistent TTK in the game seems to be the net code issues causing de-sync between client and server. Another major drawback with Black Ops 6 Multiplayer is the low latency servers. It is not known when the developer will be addressing these problems, but if not fixed at the earliest, the game could lose a lot of players.

These have been glaring issues with the franchise for a long time now and the frustration among the community is justified.
